What does Microsoft have for the first 9 months of 2015? Screamride and State of Decay(rerelease).
Ori and happy wars?

And Ori/Happy Wars.
How dare you forget about one of the best games this year Ori. Shame!
I have an idea for a thread in May, let me run it by you.
"I'm interested in the winter line-up for the PS4, what should I expect?"

Dude, nobody plays videogames during the off-season.
Haha at the serious responses to your post by the way. Sometimes there are easy ways to figure certain things out...

This. PS4 may not have vey big games like Halo but has many exclusives that are very good and it follows with very big games right after that in few months with UC4, SF5 etc.,
To be fair Ori isn't an indie

There are enough Third-Party games in Q4 in my opinion.

Don't worry when Fall arrives.
I'm make a thread " What does MS have for Spring/Summer"
Hopefully Scalebound and QB!

Any game that is not an entry to a known franchise, or that is not a FPS-TPS-W.RPG is an indie...Haven't you gotten the memo?
Sony is playing it smart, imo. Why would I send my games to die when year's end is crammed with huge 3rd party titles that have always proven enough to carry a console?
Off season or bust bruh!
In all seriousness though, I couldn't live with a console that only focuses on games during the Christmas period.
I have gaming needs during those other 9 months too...

I'm pretty sure Sony snatched up marketing deals for huge 3rd party games to counter the fact that they they don't have any huge exclusives to offer themselfs.
Just like Microsoft has marketing for Witcher 3 and Hardline in a period where they don't have any exclusives.
Sony basically did the same thing last year with Destiny and I think it worked out pretty well for them. But this year they have a huge lineup of smaller exclusive titles which could be great, but they aren't really titles you use for big marketing pushs, except maybe No Mans Sky.

I don't know man, people seem to move goalposts mid topic: "yeah but it's all about the games, not sales! I don't care because I'm not a fanboy, only fanboys care about marketing deals and sales"
And then you have stuff like: "But will it sell like [insert game here] and [insert game here]?? I seriously doubt it bro!!"
Because I think we all know which console is going to sell the most WW this fall/winter/Q4.
I give it a month before a similar topic pops up.
Eww, I guess now that they are betting more money on their PS division the expenses also go up.

Tbh i think itll be more fun to predict when the next "what does ps4 have for the holidays" thread will appear than go over ground that weve treaded over a hundred times already.

Sony had Hardline, they just didn't use it much probably because of the delay.
What kinda hats?

please do it. A week later I'll make a thread "what does MS have in store for BONE these 10 months".
It will be like deja vu X deja vu.
Ratchet & Clank though. ^.^
Also, your post is okay if you're looking at it from a business point of view, but OP is probably looking at the relevance for him as a consumer and probably looking forward to what SCE has in store in terms of first-party games.

Im in. A week after that ill make a thread, what does Microsoft have for pre season.

guys do you really think sony is snatching up marketing deals?
it makes MUCH more sense for Activision and EA themselves to come to sony themselves because of the big install base (especially compared to the tiny bone one).
at least bi-weekly it seems

Co-marketing deals are symbiotic.
Sony wants to advertise the PS4
ActivisionBlizzard wants to their advertise their games
AB's games run on Sony's platform. They create co-marketing deal to advertise both in one ad.

Year of the Amiga confirmed.
I know these posts are a way to get back at the people who used to say that back when MS was sweeping deals left and right but every company is capable of moneyhatting stuff. When they have the money and means to do so you can bet everything on them buying stuff. Whether it's Nintendo Microsoft or Sony, I laugh at the notion that one of those companies would rather be the good samaritan standing on the gamers' side than to spend money to gain even more of that. While I don't agree from a gamers perspective I think it makes a lot of sense business wise.Yeah, Sony is better than that.
Ugh has Sony announced multiple remasters for this fall? The only ones I know is the rumored Gears of War for the XB1 and UC for the PS4 (Also rumored)

Korean board listed potential Gravity Daze Remastered.

What does Sony have this Winter? |OT| Sony is doomed!
Edit: Damn it. Beaten by a couple seconds. Typing "Sony is doomed!" doomed me. lol

Illness is the doctor to whom we pay most heed; to kindness, to knowledge, we make promise only; pain we obey.
We need to organize this. Who's in charge of the OT? When do we decide a clever tagline? Do we have a vote? Who does the 2016 thread?

I'm deadly serious. I don't believe Sony would stoop to moneyhatting third party titles. Why would they when they could invest that money into a new first party IP?

LOL! They moneyhatted SFV. (I don't believe for a second they're helping with funding)

Sony saved SF, there would not been a SF without Sony. Sony saved FGC!

I don't believe Sony is above money hatting.
I do however, suspect they're more greedy in their expectations of a big-title moneyhat, and that they either want it permanently, or long enough that by the time competition can have it, the audience excitement would've moved on.
